Hi blind. I’m a junior engineer who just moved to Seattle and currently paying around $1900 in total for a studio right now.
I’m on OPT. I’m from ROW and my company is willing to start my gc processing anytime, so I won’t have much problem in maintaining a permanent status in the US. My parents want me to buy a condo to save the rent. They are willing to lend me around 100k for the down payment.
I have no debt and am single (no dependents and plans to marry soon) so I think I can afford paying mortgage for a decent studio in SLU near office. I just want to save rent so as long as I don’t lose money when selling it, it’ll be fine. I currently have little less than 30k in my investments which I can liquidize very quickly when I need to.
Sadly, I have much less knowledge about buying houses in the States. My home country have great benefits when buying houses for the first time, so I was wondering if the US has the similar stuff. Or things I should be aware of. I would greatly appreciate any sources of information on learning about this more.
